nofixedability Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Really surprised Anderson didn’t start today. Agree with Tbsouth Aitken was a mile off it today, our striking options are woeful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridie Vision Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 4-3-3 is how we played against Cowdenbeath. I agree with the various comments, I am a big fan of Matty but he appears to be bereft of confidence, the issue is Shepherd has been poor all season, Doris would get a hernia if he played more than 15 minutes, leaving only Stef, so you could play a lineup like this: McCallum Meechs, Munro, Anderson, Strachan Ness, Slater, Thomas Thomson, Stef, PJ/Grant That's not bad but is Stef a lone striker? How likely does a Hilson loan move sound? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilson can get tae f**k. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know of strikers who might be open to a loan move in January that would be an upgrade on Matty? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More realistically, however, if Irvine does look for a striker in January it'll most likely be an Premier league youngster from Aberdeen or Dundee or somewhere like that on loan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilly (please stop that), is NOT a Forfar legend. I do agree, that it was a mental comment, but you didn't have to double up. As for playing 1 up front, get that in the bin. 2 for me all day long at this level. As the comment above from the Arbroath lad, our arses were handed to us, not a surprise seeing their results this season. Their 2 points of the top. As for Hussien, not got a clue why he was playing in the first place, then remembered he played in the last round as well. Looks like he was getting the cup games to rest Strachen. Albion Rovers is more important for us than some Diddy Cup anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridie Vision Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Looks like we will have a few players missing through injury. However, we should still have enough to pick up a win at Coatbridge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lwh Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Thank god for that. Tight game. ReallY poor defending for their equaliser but did well once we got back in front. Close the gap on Kelty for the time being too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridie Vision Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 Boring football? Stuart Malcolm was boring football. We've played some nice stuff under Gary Irvine. Yes the performances over the last few weeks have been grinding out results, which we are getting, but we shouldn't be overly surprised by that, for a few reasons. Coatbridge last week was a dreadful pitch, you have to grind a result. It's winter, so the weather is cold, wet and dark, which affects games. We're comfortably 2nd, every team we meet (except Kelty) will be more defensive because they know how good we are. Me personally, I'm enjoying going to Station Park at the moment and long may that continue, it's a heck of a difference to last season when all we had was livestreams and losing every Saturday! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loon From Outta Toon Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Callum Moore back at Station Park. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoonsYouthTeam Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Thought he was ok last season, albeit we were an absolute gang. We already have a lot of options in midfield so not sure it's where we needed strengthening but hoping he can do a good job 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lwh Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 Moore was decent in a really poor team. I think he could be very good in a good team but centre midfield is probably our strongest position and as a player he’s quite similar to slater (although obviously not on that level). It’s a good addition but I’m not sure it’s totally necessary 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
